I’m so pleased with this little project! I collaborated with Jordan of Polkadot Prints to design a darling house-shaped gift box that is as easy as pie to put together. You’ll want to make one for neighbors, postal workers, teachers — pretty much everyone you know!

Simply print off the free template, cut it out and double-side tape it together.

Fill it with a few small treats and your gift-giving list is done in a flash!

This couldn’t be more perfect timing. Milo’s last day of pre-school before Christmas is tomorrow and I’ve been stumped about little teacher gifts! I’m printing these right now, filling them with Lindt chocolates, and saying “Merry Christmas” Design-Mom-Style!

I am thrilled that my laser printer cold print on heavier card stock to make these boxes! I don’t have a scoring tool, but I have an old tool for transferring sewing patterns that worked like a charm. (A spiked wheel that you run along the paper.) I plan to bake biscotti this weekend and give them away in these boxes! I’d love to scale it larger and take it to the printer to make larger boxes too. Thank you for inspiring me.

I would love to use this free template, but when I click on the link it leads me to a black page?!? Can I access the template somewhere else? IT’s so cute, I’m desperate to use it. Please help. Thanks.

I am also having trouble printing. I love this template and can’t wait to use it. But when I print, I only get the words at the top of the document. No house or wreath. :( Any help would be greatly appreciated…

LOVE this! The template is adorable. Thank you so much. I am going to use them as a craft for my daughter’s 3rd birthday. Instead of the wreath, I punched out a circle that says “Grace’s House”. I put one together on pink cardstock as a test to see if it would strike her interest. She loved it. She got her stickers and markers out right away and decorated it. Grace’s party is next weekend. I will take pictures!

Awww this is taking me back to my high school years when I used to borrow a lot of origami books from the library and create different boxes, pop-up greeting cards, etc. Have not done any of it in the last 10 years!

The internet is fueling the success of music because it can be listened to at any time of the day and anywhere in the world.
Regular workshops ensure that the staff at PVM Radio subdivision is not only up to
date with the latest technological innovations, but also ensures that the
customers from diverse backgrounds are offered the best possible services to suit
their tastes. Whats more is that 2G phones can come in a tinier and slimmer package, even its
batteries.

You might need heavier line and tackle to account
for powerful river flows. One of the benefits of fishing is that it is not physically demanding.
Most of the fishable water in the upper river
is boulder runs in deep canyons and it is scenic.

But with Nexus Radio the only settings you have to worry about are where you want
to save your files and what file type you want to save it as.
This means that everyone in the whole wide world can access this
new kind of radio and you are assured that the programs as well as
the list of radio stations you are listening to are all automatically updated.
Another radio commercial production tip to chew
on is to make sure the audio quality is excellent on any spot your produce.

I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is needed to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
I’m not very internet savvy so I’m not 100% sure. Any suggestions or advice would be
greatly appreciated. Many thanks

Great idea! Thank you –
My daughters have a lot of non-Christians in their class at school, so these will fit the bill perfectly for a winter-themed gift (versus a Christmas present).
Can’t wait to start crafting them!

I have to thank you so much!! Here recently, I’ve gotten into decorating gifts. Monsters was the first things I got into. They were awesome, but, my son had to go to a party for a boy turning 6. He got the boy a Hot Wheels set. At first I was just going to do a road with extra cars stuck to it like I’d seen on Pinterest. But, then I was browsing paper crafts and it dawned on me. I’ve used printable boxes for treats in the past. Why not see if there were some sort of little houses and that’s when I stumbled onto your blog. And the houses were the perfect size to put extra hot wheels into. The gift grew from there till there was even a firehouse! (Firehouse was actually one of your school boxes done in red!) it even had a fire truck inside. It turned out so awesome that the party place thought it was a decoration! The boy loved his gift. Thanks for making Hot Wheels turn into a special gift! :) The website is actually a link to a pic on my photobucket so you can see it if you’d like. The pic doesn’t do it justice, but, it’s adorable! Thank you so much for the printables!

Wonderful project! I made these little house boxes for my kids’ kindergartenmates and we brought them this morning. Without knowing what’s inside, the children were already happy to hold them in their hands. Their smiles were pure delight to me. This is indeed the perfect gift. Thank you very much for sharing! Joyeux Noël et bonnes fêtes de fin d’année !

Hallo! I’d like to use your template to make cake boxes for my wedding guest. But I need to print template on paper size A3 (42cmx29,7cm). I’m worried about quality. Can I increase the size to my paper dimensions? Thanks for your help!
